Senior Mechanical Engineer

The Mechanical Engineer will be primarily responsible for the design, installation, and optimization of mechanical systems within buildings — including HVAC, piping, and fire protection systems — ensuring their safe, efficient, and sustainable performance.

Principal Duties and Responsibilities

HVAC System Design

• Load Calculation: Perform detailed heating and cooling load analyses based on building use, climate, and occupancy.
• System Selection: Select suitable HVAC systems (e.g., central AC, VRV, geothermal) and ventilation strategies.
• Energy Efficiency: Integrate high-efficiency equipment and LEED-compliant technologies to improve sustainability.

Piping and Fluid System Design

• Gas Piping: Design safe and compliant gas distribution systems.
• Fire Protection Systems: Develop fire sprinkler and smoke control piping layouts.
• Special Systems: Design systems for medical gases, laboratory pipelines, and other specialized applications.

Equipment Selection & Coordination

• Procurement Support: Evaluate technical specifications for chillers, boilers, and AHUs to meet project requirements.
• Space Planning: Coordinate with architects for MEP space allocation and shaft design.
• BIM Collaboration: Use Revit and other 3D tools for multidisciplinary coordination and clash detection.

______________

Other Duties and Responsibilities

• Conduct energy audits and recommend system optimization solutions.
• Troubleshoot operational issues (e.g., noise, leaks, low efficiency).
• Implement smart control systems (BAS) and integrate renewable energy technologies.

______________

EHS Responsibilities

• Ensure all mechanical systems comply with OSHA, NFPA, GB, and relevant UAE safety standards.
• Conduct risk assessments for systems involving pressure, gases, and heat sources.
• Inspect construction activities to prevent unsafe or non-compliant operations.
• Verify safety device functionality (relief valves, fire dampers, emergency shutdown systems).
• Deliver safety training for O&M teams, including safe handling of refrigerants and fall protection.
• Ensure all team members are familiar with MSDS and chemical hazard precautions.

______________

Job Interactions and Working Relationships

• Coordinate with Technical / Material Departments to resolve on-site technical deviations.
• Liaise with Stores Department to prepare accurate material reconciliation reports.
• Collaborate cross-functionally with MEP, Structural, and Architectural teams to ensure project integration.

Preferred Qualifications

• Bachelor’s Degree in Mechanical Engineering (Master’s preferred or equivalent in Building Services / Energy Systems Engineering).
• Professional Engineer (PE) license or equivalent regional certification (e.g., UAE Society of Engineers registration) is an advantage.
• 10+ Years UAE experience in MEP design, installation, and commissioning of building mechanical systems (HVAC, piping, fire protection).
• Experience with BIM coordination, particularly using Revit MEP and Navisworks for clash detection and modeling integration.
• Strong understanding of HVAC system design principles, thermal load calculations, and equipment selection.
• Familiarity with ASHRAE, NFPA, SMACNA, IPC, and UAE Fire & Life Safety Codes.
• Expertise in energy modeling software (e.g., HAP, Carrier E20, TRACE 700).
• Working knowledge of piping system design for chilled water, gas, fire protection, and specialty systems.
• Understanding of Building Automation Systems (BAS), renewable integration (solar, geothermal), and LEED / Estidama sustainability requirements.

Certifications (Preferred):

• LEED AP / Estidama PQP certification.
• HVAC Design and Drafting Certification (ASHRAE or equivalent).
• Health and Safety Training (OSHA / NEBOSH)
